In 1954 Ralph Gentile opened Gentile's as a general carryout, but when Roger Gentile took over the business in the 1970's his mission was to focus on bringing fine wine to Columbus and craft beer, and homebrew supplies came on board as the years progressed.. Through his work in The Ohio State Agricultural Department and tireless dedication to improving wine culture in the central Ohio area, Gentile's The Wine Sellers established itself as a hub of wine enrichment and enjoyment. Today, Gentile's is proud to continue his legacy through a dedication to education and excellence in Columbus, Ohio. Cheers!
